"A kimono woman 1.0".

"Did you know that wearing a kimono is difficult even for Japanese women, and also that once dressed in a kimono, one has to act elegantly in keeping with tradition. 'Maintaining traditional culture' requires 'training', which means that 'classy Japanese beauty' can be seen as an expression of one's inner beauty."

"A kimono woman 2.0".

"However, the woman in question is also using an iPhone at the same time. I think that 'being elegant' and 'making an effort to maintain tradition' is sexy, and also I believe that 'intelligence is the new sexy', which is why we are living in the 21st century. As Confucius said, continuing to cherish our old knowledge enables us to continually acquire new knowledge. So what do you think, a Kimono-clad woman with an iPhone is a very sexy combination, isn't it?"
